Therapy Services

In December 2001, Los Niños Hospital recognized that the need for therapy services designed exclusively for infants, children and young adults had reached a critical level in our community. As we have done in the past, when essential health care needs of children are not being met, we looked for ways to provide a solution. In this case, the answer was clear and Los Niños Therapy Services was created. Drawing on our 35 years of experience in caring for the special needs of children, our newly established therapy services brings skills and a caring, personal touch to physical, occupational and speech therapy services. These services are provided both in the patient’s home, as well as at our hospital, our intermediate care facility and skilled nursing facility in Phoenix.

Los Niños Therapy Services provides a broad spectrum of physical, occupational and speech therapy services. Each therapist has completed rigorous academic and clinical preparation from an accredited professional school and has been licensed by the State of Arizona Board of Physical Therapy, Arizona Department of Health Services, or the State of Arizona Board of Occupational Therapy Examiners. Each individual brings a wealth of post-degree clinical experience in working with infants, children and young adults in a variety of settings, including inpatient and outpatient settings, as well as home health. We are constantly updating our skills to match advances in treatment science. We provide an integrated approach that brings together patient, family, doctor, nurse, therapist and other community resources. Specific therapy resources include evaluations, consultations, intervention program establishment and management, skilled hands-on care, adaptive equipment and family/caregiver training.

Our goal is to help patients return to the full and active lifestyles they have known. Los Niños Therapy Services is here to help you.
